The Old Greenwich premium crewneck, for the town that is where Greenwich began in 1640. A 9.9 oz cotton-rich sweatshirt with a smooth face and the Old Greenwich vintage retro logo on the chest in black.

This is the softer, heavier of our two Old Greenwich crewnecks, the one that becomes the three-days-a-week sweatshirt from October on. Smooth face, rich print, no scratchy tag. If you want the sweatshirt that feels like a favorite on day one, this is it; order now for cold weather and holiday giving.

Medium-heavy 9.9 oz fabric, 80% cotton and 20% polyester, gives this unisex crewneck a substantial feel without the weight. The smooth cotton-rich surface takes our retro artwork in rich detail; ribbed-knit cuffs and collar, reinforced side seams, and twill neck tape hold the shape wash after wash; a tear-away label means no scratchy tag. True to size, machine washable, and ethically printed on demand — the one you'll reach for first.

Greenwich began here in 1640, on land bought from the Siwanoy; the settlement was called Old Town for two centuries. That same year Elizabeth Fones Feake bought the peninsula the Siwanoy called Monakewego, the shining sands, in her own name, one of the earliest instances of a woman holding title to land in the New World. The Feake-Ferris House of about 1645 still stands.

The railroad stop renamed the village Sound Beach in 1872, J. Kennedy Tod built his stone estate on the point in the 1880s, Binney Park was given in 1928, and the name Old Greenwich arrived in 1931. Tod’s Point, with its tidal ponds and holly grove, is the town’s largest beach. The mark on this piece is the shining sands.

Who makes this?

Merlin Classics is a small Connecticut brand making original retro designs for the towns people love. Every piece is printed, embroidered or engraved to order in the USA, and the business supports hunger relief in the communities our collections celebrate.

Our Old Greenwich logo carries Connecticut's oyster, above "Est. 1636," the founding era of the Connecticut Colony — the shared emblem of every Merlin Classics Connecticut shoreline place. Printed in a worn black-and-white that recalls an old oyster-crate label, the oyster is the shoreline in shorthand: briny, durable, and tied to the working water. The oyster is the through-line that links Old Greenwich to every other Connecticut town we make. What makes this one Old Greenwich is everything around it — the shining sands of Tod's Point, the pond at Binney Park, and the 1640 founding ground where Greenwich began.

Old Greenwich is the original Greenwich. In July 1640, Robert Feake, Captain Daniel Patrick, and Elizabeth Fones Feake came ashore and purchased the land between the Asamuck and Tatomuck brooks from the Siwanoy people who lived along this shore — the founding transaction of the town, made here, on this beach-village ground. The settlers laid out farms and a landing on the sheltered coves, and around 1645 the Feake-Ferris House rose beside Greenwich Cove at the gateway to the point. Believed the oldest house in town and among the oldest in Connecticut, it has been carefully restored in recent years — and it is still standing, on the way to the beach, nearly four centuries on.

Why People Visit Old Greenwich

Old Greenwich offers the Connecticut Gold Coast at its most low-key — a real shore village with a beach peninsula, a pond park, and a handful of streets of shops, plus the quiet distinction of being where Greenwich began. Visitors come for Tod's Point and the Sound, the founding history, and the unhurried village pace, and stay for the beaches, the coves, and the deep-rooted New England feel. It is refined, historic, and genuinely Connecticut.
